Herewith, a couple of pictures of the cover:
Look at that schnozz!!! .....err... I mean..... What a beautiful cover! :p Big Grin

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.

Imagination Fully Dilated, a nice collection of short stories, including "Anna" by FPW.

Jimbow! I can't believe you made such a tactical error. By making that comment about FPW's perfectly shaped and proportioned nasal appendage, you have lost this round of FPW Risk, and must now forfeit your hard-earned campaign cards (books) to the player who called you on it (Moi). Big Grin

Damn! Damn! (The second damn is just to get my message up to 10 characters).

APhew Wrote:Unfortunately, no. It looks like 8th or 9th generation copies. Also, I should mention that the writing was done in pencil and that the entire "novel" was dunked in a river at least twice before reaching the hands of the man I bought it off of.

Then the deal's off! I'm an easy-goin' hombre, but there's one thing I =insist= upon if I'm gonna trade my Vulcan NIGHTWORLD. And that's a good photo of the winsome Sally. Sorry, APhew...

Biggles Wrote:Well, Mike, since "Only the good die young", and since, among other transgressions, I'm a LAWYER, I figure I don't need a time machine. I'll just stick (or schtick) around until 2268 or later. After all, I've waited 25 years for my Stillers to win "One for the thumb" as they were supposed to do after the 1980 season (I still remember the billboards: "One for the thumb in '81"). Now, granted, I'm not as patient as Cubs fans or Red Sox fans, but.....

Addendum/afterthought: Maybe Joe Pa will still be coaching my Nittany Lions then too. Wink

Ah, the old Faustian bargain, eh, Biggles? Never did get the skinny of the deal you lawyers make. But that's OK--I'll be playing chess with one of your tribe later tonight, and after a tumbler or two of Jim Beam, Lloyd will tell me everything I want to know. (Though my soul would probably be better off =not= knowing... Wink )

Maggers Wrote:Very cool, Biggles. My copies of FPW's books range from yellowed and raggedy paperbacks to not-excessively-pawed-over ex-library copies to brand new but not first editions (I don't think) purchased at amazon.com.

But I love 'em anyway!

Well, we're all unique, ain't we?

Anyone out there have requests for photos of covers or limitation pages? I'm sure several of us can help. Just ask.
